The Chameleons are an English rock band, formed in Middleton, Greater Manchester in 1981. The band's classic line-up consisted of lead vocalist and bassist Mark Burgess, guitarists Reg Smithies and Dave Fielding, and drummer John Lever.

He's cold to the kiss
In ignorance he's dangerous
In innocence he's bliss

And he stalks the night
With sonar senses
And he holds you tight
Masturbates the madness in you

He dreams when he's not sleeping
Plays the trusted friend
Trust him, friend 
About as far as you can piss

And he holds the night
And walks in shadow
And avoids the light
Masturbates the madness in you

His frightened eyes
Can't disguise
Blatant lies
Blatant lies
Step inside

Oh well, will we watch him now
Where he's walking
It's a vacuum world
Every word
A silent, strangled scream

Oh he's God tonight
He walks on water
And he's always right
Talks about the madness in America
In America
Oh, he's God tonight 
He walks on water
And he's always right
Talks about the madness in Africa
Africa

His frightened eyes
Mad Jack's eyes
Can't disguise
Blatant lies
Frightened eyes
Mad Jack's eyes
Are open wide
His eyes are wide, eyes are wide, wide

It's been a long time, Jack
Welcome back
Have some speed
Have some smack

If you want to dance, Jack
Don't look back
If you want to dance, Jack
Don't look back
If you want to dance, Jack
Don't look back
If you want to dance, Jack
Don't look back
